Flight of fantasy

You are here
After ages

Tons of history
Plenty of memories
Very few regrets

I waited
Infinitely long
With endless glances at the door
Not knowing the purpose

Truth is, I am lost

You ask for the name
I ask for it too
You ask for the cause
I don’t even know my loss

You ask for more
I tell my dreams

You understand
Dreams are all I got
Not even memories
Not even history
And no regrets

You suddenly realize
I starved
Beyond my capacity
Killing my hunger forever

But I contest
I am alive
With a hint of ambrosia

You feel the indifference
I notice the guilt
And the beauty, like a halo
Decorating my surrounding
But intangible

And here it comes
The awakening call

It was a dream
Multiple dreams
Reality disorder

One of my flights of fantasy!

Beyond my capacity
Killing my hunger forever

You ask for the cause
I don’t even know my loss
